Day 112::August 27, 2010

What a wonderful day I had today.  I spent the morning with my parents- eating breakfast, chatting and searching through my grandfather's penny collection for a copper penny circa 1943.  Apparently those are worth a lot of money!  After dad left for work, mom and I spent time looking through pictures and then working on stuff for tomorrow.

I was able to run around town for a few things and my mind just flooded with memories.  Memories from high school and college, but mostly from grades 9-12.  I know I share these memories with only a few other people, but I thought I'd share the ones that stuck out...
  • The Ronald Regan Pkwy scooter accident
  • Surprise birthday parties and countless luaus
  • Shaving cream fights
  • Off campus senior lunches
  • Brookwood Baptist youth group
  • Cody Lane's beautiful funeral and balloon release
  • Learning to drive
  • Going to Brusters almost weekly at one point (and always ordering the same thing)
  • Watching late night movies, sometimes watching movies all night! 
One of the areas that I drove though this afternoon is home to a Hindu temple.  This thing literally looks like a sand castle masterpiece.  It is beautiful.  Unfortunately all I had with me was my phone so the pictures seriously don't do it justice.  It does make me sad though to think these people are worshiping a false god and not the one true God.  Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through me.  John 14:6
